Boulders crashed down on Kamehameha Highway near Waimea Bay on Oʻahu. Traffic is down to one lane while the Transportation Department works to stabilize the ground above the highway.

The measure would allow the implementation of cameras at “high risk” intersections to track expired registrations and safety checks, along with red light violations and speeding.

A landslide hit Oʻahu's Kamehameha Highway at the popular Waimea Bay over the weekend — the second landslide to hit that area, as repair crews were already on site trying to restabilize an earlier landslide caused by the first Kona low storm.

Department of Transportation Director Ed Sniffen spoke to HPR contributor Yunji de Nies about last year's record number of fatalities.

The cameras will record the external view on each drive, and the data will be uploaded through the program’s app and to the department’s data consultant, Blyncsy, where an AI system will analyze areas that need maintenance or repairs.

In a 2020 survey, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the state found that shipping costs are farmers’ third-leading barrier to growing their operations.

A few changes have landed at the Daniel K. Inouye International Airport in Honolulu, including increased transportation, food options, and updates to the agriculture declaration form.

Cities and states in the U.S. are turning to AI to improve road safety. Hawaiʻi is distributing 1,000 dashboard cameras to monitor road conditions and reduce traffic fatalities.
